Good for document and note management
What do you like best about the product?
Several templates for meeting notes, troubleshooting, manual, and more
What do you dislike about the product?
The search engine. It’s really hard to find old pages unless they are tagged. Also can not creat sub directories similar to google drive
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing document and harmonizing report templates.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It has many templates to start with. Make sure to use tags in documents otherwise it would be hard to find them years ahead.
Easy to use and find info!
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to organize information in Confluence. Posting information and then moving it around to the best place to keep things organized is very easy. It's easy to view what others are working on and learn more about their perspectives.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't a ton of room to customize the format of pages and blogs. Limited ability to change font and colors and things. The tools that are provided are easy to use though!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Confluence has helped us collect a lot of information from many teams into one shared space. It's easier to catch up on ongoing projects through Confluence and read through obstacles and success teams are experiencing.
Great Documentation tool
What do you like best about the product?
From Knowledge base to project-related documentation tracking it is a great tool which provides easy usage during a project and making updates to knowledge base content is extremely easy. Drag and drop regions and asset managers make everything quick to update and easy to maintain.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would like to see easier ways to connect to more systems and have more widgets available without needing to customize or install mods.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our shared drive was a mess. And versioning documentation between our technical managers and analysts caused a ton of headache. Putting everything on confluence allowed for better document management as well as working online and not worrying about being able to save our work into our network drives.
"Place where flowing ideas or knowledge connects"
What do you like best about the product?
Confluence is the best collaboration tool where all team members can share ideas or knowledge and others can seek help from it. In Confluence , we can make document of any project , so that others can get detailed knowledge regarding project. We can also attach screenshots or any images , which is also very helpful , if visual data is required. We can store all details regarding project such as team members list, clients list ,resources required ,etc and so everyone in team members gets project detail by sharing this confluence document.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes confluence goes down due to server issues or heavy traffic.So during urgency, it creates problems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Firstly using confluence , we don't have to search mails or elsewhere for any project details , we can get project details from confluence directly . For any queries related issues , it can be solved by discussion on the project page on confluence. Feedback functionality is also there , so feedback can be provided to any topic shared or file uploaded.
Keep documentation synchronized with Jira
What do you like best about the product?
One of the best tools to get your software documentation synchronized with Jira
What do you dislike about the product?
It lacks some of the instrument that another text editor offers
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping organized software documentation
Good document management software but has room for improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I like the way this software gets linked with other Atlassian products like Jira. The realtime notification for changes with clear diff also is a very helpful feature. Document history is also very useful feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
Adding code and highlighting to the documents is not easy. I'd love to have a seamless markdown support.
I do not find the search very easy at it looks like it doesn't search through the content very well.
I do not find the search very easy at it looks like it doesn't search through the content very well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use confluence for documentation for everything. Be it technical architecture or product description or a POC. Our marketing team also uses confluence for documenting everything.
Fast, easy collaborative environment
What do you like best about the product?
The speed in which Confluence operates. I can create documents quickly, add links to other pages by pressing [ctrl]+[k] (and be filtered for existing pages on the site). Add macros with the press of the forward slash, and much more.
What do you dislike about the product?
Migration from on-prem to cloud isn't 100% guaranteed. We've found that images don't get pulled over entirely for our various pages. We only found this out a few weeks after our migration, so we can't go back to the old instance and re-migrate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a place where we could share our documentation with our new team-members, which were located in a variety of geographic locations throughout the world.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be aware of what the add-ons cost. On-prem server install usually means cheaper add-on costs. Once you move to cloud, these prices can increase quite a bit.
Useful
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to keep a list of action items online during a meeting and who is supposed to do what is helpful for future reference
What do you dislike about the product?
The price keeps increasing every time we add people. When we signed up it was only $10 per month!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping track of task, sharing files, and quarterly goals online
Recommendations to others considering the product:
adding a chat option so we can talk to a live person would be very helpful
